Iga Świątek will likely start preparations for the French Open Grand Slam from the tournament in Stuttgart. We learned on Friday that at least two of her competitors will be absent from Germany.
The Polish player is currently participating in the Poland-Switzerland match in the Billie Jean King Cup tournament, but she will most likely play in the German tournament. On Friday, we learned that two potential competitors had withdrawn from the competition.

It's about Jessica Pegula and Emma Navarro.
“I've heard a lot of great things about this tournament and I hope I can finally play in it one day,” said the first American.
Pegula and Navarro currently represent the United States against Belgium in the Billie Jean King Cup. The Americans' withdrawal means Paula Badosa and Donna Vekic automatically appear in the main draw.
For Schweitke, the tournament in Stuttgart will be the first of the season to be played on clay. This will be the beginning of preparations for the French Open in May.
The tournament begins in Stuttgart on Saturday, April 13 (qualifiers) and continues until Sunday, April 21. Świątek has won it in the last two seasons.
